#eventscentreopening

Joy Stephens from Hutt City Council

We're counting down to the opening of the new Events Centre and refurbished Town Hall in July and thought we'd have a stroll through Lower Hutt's past civic buildings.
Here's Lower Hutt's Town Hall in 1914. The Council leased the building opposite Andrews Ave from 1908. The Town Hall building was damaged in a big earthquake in 1942 and in 1943 they moved into the old Post Office building on the corner of High Street and Laings Road. The current Town Hall building was opened in April 1957. #eventscentreopening

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
